Beers similar to Fuller's ESB

hopIQ found 10 beers with the same orange and grassy character as Fuller's ESB. ESB was introduced in 1971 as a winter brew replacing an older house ale and has since become a permanent part of the range. It pours a deep mahogany, built on Pale, Crystal and Chocolate malt and hopped with Target, Challenger, Northdown and Goldings. Orange marmalade leads the nose, balanced by soft toffee. Grassy and peppery hop notes with a hint of citrus sit over biscuity malt, and a smooth, gentle bitterness carries into a long, warming finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
